i can handle some of the uneven, disjointedness...but i usually have strong, visceral feelings with spike lee movies that go for it...i felt very little in this one, other than lindo's character's flashback to norman's death...the tonal shifts were a bit much, and lee's directorial flourishes which i usually greatly enjoy were underwhelming

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I thought it was pretty good but after reading all the bad opinions about it on this board I'm ready to defend it against all charges.
